"Fugitive" lyrics

"Fugitive"

You are a runaway fugitive
You carry bags of guilt you can't seem to get rid of
Oh, you're hiding well in your disguise
Among the crowds, you're just another face

You can keep running
But how long can you hide?

You go on, you escape silently
You go on, slipping in and out of the scene
You go on while nobody suspects a thing
And you do things your way, and only the way you want it

You're far away from your seekers' eyes
If they set out to search for you, there would be no trace
And you're fine with living alone
As long as no one tells you to change

You can keep running and running
But there's nowhere to hide

You go on, you keep chasing your dreams
You go on while avoiding reality
You run on while that mask is covering
And you do things your way, and only the way you want it

How long will another day pass you by?
How long can you fool unsuspecting eyes?
How long can your footprints be covered with lies?
How long will you see your wrong as right?
You're a slave to your own miserable state
Is this the way you want it?
